f(x)’s Fan Event ‘Revealing Something Surprising’

f(x), the girl group, had an amazing meet. On the 27th in Ax-Korea, Kwangjang, Seoul, f(x) cheerfully started off the fan event with their debut single ‘LA chA TA’. They also created a friendly mood as they answered the fan’s UFOs from text.

When asked ‘What are the member’s nicknames?’ to the leader Victoria, Sulli and Krystal said Big Mama while Luna said Qian Unnie. When Girls’ Generation Jessica’s sister, Krystal, was asked ‘When do you feel like you’re the same as your sister?’ she replied with ‘Whenever we compare our height through our shoulders I don’t feel like the younger sibling’.

Then an oppa to Sulli asked ‘Don’t other oppas ask you for signatures?’ and Sulli replied with ‘My friend’s tutor, an oppa, demands for a signature when I call my friend’. Then when ‘Whose most gullible in the group?’ was asked, Amber said Luna and Victoria.

In the meet, the fans created a corner where they made a fill-in-the-blank sentence ‘I want to see ____ do ____’. The fans who wanted to see Krystal’s aegyo cheered when she did the 3-set aegyo ‘I’m sleepy’, ‘Honey don’t get mad’ and ‘Gimme food’. Luna received applause after singing ‘And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going’ for the fans who wanted her superb live vocals. Sulli danced the ‘Auction Dance’ for the fans who wanted to see and Amber did an impersonation of Pororo creating a passionate respond from the audience. **

After the fan event, Victoria showed her affection to the fans via Star Call, ‘Today was so fun. Did everyone else have fun? I think we got closer with the fans. Please be safe’

f(x) Sulli, “I was asked if I had botox done on my lips…”

Group f(x) speaks up about speculations going around that they have undergone plastic surgery.

f(x) Luna said in a recent interview with MyDaily, “There were many rumours of plastic surgery when we first debuted. It was really tough.” Krytal then said jokingly, “(Pointing to the face) This?”.

Sulli explained, “We really heard a lot of these rumours. That I’ve undergone plastic surgery for double eyelids. When I open my eyes real big, it gets thicker and when I don’t pay attention, it disappears. I think people are too doubtful.”

She continued, “There was even people who said that I’ve got botox done on my lips. I was so hurt in the beginning. I asked myself ‘Does this make sense?’. But people around me told me that people only said that because my eyes are pretty like those underwent plastic surgery. And so I was like ‘Ahh, so that’s why’ and I liked it.”

Member Amber, known for her boyish charms, also said, “There were many doubts whether I am really a guy. When those surfaced, Sulli came out and said ‘Don’t seem like bad intention. Aren’t they just saying that you’re cool? Amber also don’t see it in a bad way’.”

Amber continued, “Now I’m used to it. In the States, when I go to the restroom, some aunties even once told me to ‘Go the opposite direction’. I know people don’t mean it the bad way. So I’m fine with it now.”
